forgot to say i like your aswell. tof looks really happy in that pic. you have done him proud. just out of curiosity how long have you had tof. never been on this forum long enough to know.



i can only imagine how hard it is for you at the moment danny. it is good that you have not given up hope on finding him, i bet he will turn up when you least expect it!
continue to treasure luna, she will help you out though all of this

ive had tof for about 10 months now, she does look happy don't she bless her she is a mega poser though

She is doing a great job Chrissy, she just needs to learn how to do it and practice makes perfect. Remember how long she is and how much body she has to move.

Dont worry too much about her falling, she will only slip down a stair or two. If you keep supporting her she wont learn to grip on by herself - have found that with Kellog, he doesnt hang onto me like he should cos he seems to know I will catch him !!

Dont think there is anything to worry about with Tof...she is just perfect!!

HAHA!

(I cant wait for Slinky-T-F-B to grow so that I can watch her climbe the stairs!)

When I first got S-T-F-B I also got a fake vine- the first 3-4 days of using it she kept on falling off/loosing balance and then on the 5th day she didnt- so I put this down to building muscle



I've seen them about are they a good idea? Casper is only a hatchling so is currently in a faun and there isn't really room for any sort of branch to be put in there but i could maybe put one of the small vines hanging from the slits in the faun.

S-T-F-B viv doesnt have room for a branch either- so I bought the vine as she kept on getting onto the tiny ledge by the viv doors and falling off :( She looked so sad about this- and it wasnt nice hearing her "Clonk" off and into the water bowl! So I bought one and she loves it! She Snakes around quite happily now!

Just tried Saracen on the 'stairs challenge'. He gave it a valiant effort but needed a bit of a 'leg-up', or at least the snake equivalent of one. He had the right idea but is perhaps still a little short bless him. At least he was happy to play with me - I seem to be forgiven for the horrendous feeding episode.

Glad to see you are forgiven Sammy!! Not that you needed forgiving for anything!

It is nice hearing that another corn is having to learn how to climb the stairs...I really do think it is down to them experiencing something new, especially if they are not 'climbers' in their viv on branches etc. Dont worry, he will get there and it is great exercise for him.

Woo hoo, he did it! Speedy too - like a pro this time - seemed like he'd been doing it for years

I've just looked in his viv and he's on his log for the first time. Seems he's just caught the climbing bug.

Remember to give him time to settle in Danny, with no handling...and definitely no stair climbing!!!
